1 spaghetti squash - cooked and remove from skin - put in a casserole dish
Sauté the following in a little olive oil and add to the spaghetti squash
2 med zucchini - sliced and quartered
1 can artichoke
1 can no salt diced tomato
1 red pepper
Salt, pepper, red chilies, Italian seasoning
Bake at 350 for 1/2 hour or more depending on how soft you want the veggies. I like them pretty firm.
It makes 8 servings and they are 70 calories each.
I make this twice a week and it is my "go to" food if I need something to fill me up.0 -

Ingredients

1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
1 1/2 cups 1% low-fat milk
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
